HOLY GOD!!!!

Just in case you needed further reason to think Hillary is an out-of-touch weirdo, here's a new one. After a long -- and, frankly, pretty cool and innovative -- online search for her campaign theme song, Hillary settled on "You and I" by, dear lord, Celine Dion.

WARNING: The song starts playing when you click this link. Make sure to have some paper towels handy to sop up the blood that will pour from your ears.



As an aside, why the hell would she choose a song that immediately makes folks think about her marriage? All of Bill's policy goodwill may reflect well on her, but reminding everyone that they are a real couple just makes me think of the blue dress. Nobody needs that.

And what demographic is this appealing to? Are there really enough blotchy, fanny-packed, overweight, human-resources-assistants to swing the primary?

No no, this is smart--Hillary is just trying to snag the Québécoise vote. I think they picked the wrong song though. "My Heart Will Go On" would have been a much better choice because everyone knows that one and has already puked on multiple occasions from hearing it so damn much. Seriously though, if this song derails Hillary's campaign, that would mean that Celine Dion actually serves a purpose by being on this earth, and if you would have told me that a few days ago I'd have said you were crazy.

PS--Another good option would have been "Justified and Ancient" by The KLF/Tammy Wynette to make up for all the shit Hills said about Wynette back in 1992. "They're Justified, and they're Ancient,
and they drive an ice cream van"--that pretty much sums up the Clinton campaign for me.

In case you need it, here is the link to that Obama Girl video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKsoXHYICqU

My favorite part is when FOX News had a lengthy discussion on whether this video would hurt Obama, because, "after all, he is a married man." Ahhhh, I imagine Michelle is very worried about this cybergirl. Maybe he can get some advice from Rudy, McCain, Newt, Fred and all the other GOP candidates with stellar marital records.
